I've decided to take a break from the fabric giveaways until the beginning of the year. I haven't decided whether I will take a break from blogging...although I guess I already am. Most of my projects are on the slower side without much to post...I am a few days away from having the 3/4 inch postage project sewn into 2 by 4 rectangles. However, Molly's fanatical supervision limits how much I can work on it because cats and piles of 2 by 2 squares are incompatible.
With limited time on the postage stamps, I have been basting many more hexies. My pile of cut out hexies are dwindling fast and I will have to make the executive decision of limiting the size of the quilt or hunting down more animals (in fabric form).
Molly takes her supervisory role very seriously. Here she is supervising me while I am outside watching a dead tree being taken down. If there was a soundtrack it would include a lot of guys yelling, a chainsaw and branch grinding. Buddy, being the sensible cat, was hiding.

I'm with Buddy, tree trimming is worrisome.
Maybe put out a call for the size animals you use in your hexes to see if you can collect more from your readership? Might be fun to see what appears?

Ceci has a great idea! Let us repay your generosity a bit and send you some little animals, just let us know what size you need for the hexies.
Oooo, yes, I'm sure I have some little animals!
Agree.
Little animals. . . I think it would be fun to see what your readership would send you! I miss your posts when you take a break. We need to be kept abreast of Molly's and Buddy's antics.
Please don't take a long break. I will understand, but will definitely miss you
Your blog is one of the few I really look forward to - I love how you manage to have such witty cats - I read their views out to mine but they look back blankly , and settle in for a good wash.
I understand how blogging must be a challenge - we aren't always doing things that are interesting - how about having one day a week with a very short post, just to keep in touch, see how it goes for a while? Reading this back - I seem to remember sending a similar message to my youngest son - he's currently living in Australia and regular messages are very reassuring to have.......I hope you are able to receive some little animals to use in your quilt and look forward to seeing some progress no matter how slow it is. Love to M & B and to you also, Elaine in UK
I too would love to send you critter snippets for your hexies. But I also understand taking a break. My break has been years so I appreciate those who still manage to post. We do what we need.
